Description

[Michael Newton]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021227 Phoenix/0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021227 Phoenix/0.5

I've only seen this in Phoenix; I don't have Mozilla and am on a dial-up
connection, so I'm not going to download it!

If you have more than one user name saved for a page, the dialog box that comes
up asking you to choose a user name is just displaying <> instead of the proper
user name.  A screen shot will be attached.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have more than one email account at canada.com
2. Log in to check mail for both accounts, saving passwords as you do.
3. Return to the page, observe the resulting dialog box.

Actual Results:  
Given a 'Select User' dialog with only <> listed

Expected Results:  
Given a 'Select User' dialog with user names listed

This is still a problem with new builds...

I realize now that nobody will ever fix this bug, or even look at it, but this
is still an issue for me.  I've modified the bug summary because I'm not sure
it's a problem with displaying the user name, or saving it.  This is the
relevant HTML, can't see anything special about this form element, but there it is:

<form name="formslogin" method="post" action="formslogin.aspx" id="formslogin">
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE"
value="dDwtMTExNjQ5NjU5Mzs7bDxidG5TaWduSW47Pj7GU0/0JfWF5tGi1Bcp0MRrtw0ixw==" />
<input name="txtUserName" type="text" size="40" id="txtUserName" tabindex="1"
class="plain" />
<input name="txtPassword" type="password" size="20" id="txtPassword"
tabindex="2" class="plain" />
<input type="image" name="btnSignIn" id="btnSignIn" tabindex="3"
src="http://mirror.canada.com/images/b_signin.gif" border="0" />
</form>

and this is what's in my password file:

http://www.canada.com
am_keyword
~
txtUserName
~bWljaGFlbC5uZXd0b24=
*txtPassword
~Y2hlZXNl
.

Don't see anything unusual there either, but who knows...
